I'll be honest folks, I've got nothing to say today. Well, at least not much, and nothing new or interesting or shocking.
I spent the 14th in sydney. My sprinkler adventure had left me running on an hour of sleep, so I decide that I didn't feel like going anywhere. I managed to track down an all-you-can-eat Chinese Buffet, and prodeeded to eat myself into oblivion; a sure-fire way to smooth over the low mood sydney was putting me in. I should say now; Sydney is the least bike friendly city I have ever been in. There are no ramps on the curb corners! You know how in most cities t\nearly every corner has a ramp? I assume it's done more for wheelchair access, but it's pretty nice for bikes too! Sydey has no ramps, just 6 inch (or higher) curbs.
I left Sydney after another atttmepted mood imrovement meal, this time at Perkins. They had this special, called the Tremendous Twelve. It includes three eggs, hash browns, bacon, and four buter milk pancakes. All of that for the price of 6.50? I couldn't pass it up.
That pretty much catches you all up. I think I will spen the night here in Sterling, cause it's a long way to the next town. Who knows, maybe I'll keep going. I don't think I have any new pictures, but I'll check, and if I've got em, I'll put em up. Thanks for reading.
You know it's a bad headwind when you have to pedal to go downhill.

Firsties!
I wasn't going to post on anything that you did in Nebraska but now that you're out of that hell hole, congratulations!!!!!! Never ever go back.
Hey Alex, if you are down, I promise you will cheer up soon. The Rockies are beautiful and so is much of Boulder. Have you been to Colorado before? I can't remember... Anyway, I think you will love it. Hey, look for two small packages from me when you are in Boulder. One has probably already and the other is going in the mail tomorrow morning so I hope it will get there on time. Nothing too exciting, but hopefully you'll like having 'em.... and at the least you will know I am thinking of you. I keep telling my friends what a cool thing my nephew is doing. What an adventure you are having - even in a deserted town in Nebraska, you had an experience you will probably never forget! I love reading your blog, so keep writing and posting those pictures. Lots of love, Aunt Julie
I would just like to spend a moment bonding on our shared passion for all-you-can-eat chinese buffets by reflectively sighing about the expirence you, matt, amelia, and myself had at the Great Wall between IB tests that one beautifully sunny spring day. Anyway shine on you crazy diamond, shine on.
What the frock you've biked to colorado. I'm so impressed. Also i am coming down off a massive caffeine high and still have tons of homework. It's three in the morning here. Ok so i have nothing that pertinent to post. But YAY COLLEGE! You're adventures provide me with yet another tool for procrastination.
Devin- For the most part, devin, I couldn't agree more. Nebraska can be an unfortunate place to find oneself. However, one of my favorite rides(the mist day) took place there, so I can't say it was all bad.
Aunt Julie- Since I won't be in boulder until sunday, and I will be staying a few days, both of your packages should make it. I must agree about colorado. I have been here before and I haven't even seen the mountains yet this time around and I find it beautiful. I can't give too much credit to colorado, but my spirits are flyin high once again, too. As always, thanks for your support. Thanks too for telling people about my trip! Feel free to give anyone who is interested the blog address. The more the merrier!
Nick Ray- A diamond Nick Ray?! Your too much, I'm blushing! In all seriousness, though, I must agree, all-you-can-eat Chinese buffets are a truly wonderful thing.
Wemma- Thanks for expressing your awe! I've been thinking about you folks at college, and truly, I feel the same awe and respect at what you folks are doing. Really! You are launching into a crazy world! You, and everyone else, had better be damn proud of yourselves!
Ah yes your favorite part of nebraska was when you couldnt see it...
Hi sweetie. This is my last try. I have tried four posts and they go into nowhere. The others were cute. This is just an experiement -- cute will come later. I am sorry you got all wet, but I am glad the cop was nice. Do you have the old woman's address? I will send her than you for providing food and shelter to my lovely daughter. That way her son will know you are not a figment of her dementia. Keep pedaling and keep safe, Mom
Mom- I do have her address. I will send it to you. Also, tell anker to put the gato gato recipe up for me.
